Abstract: Dans des systèmes téléphoniques connus, il est très difficile de modifier les enregistrements détaillés d'appels (CDR) formatés à partir d'un flux de données brutes. Selon ce procédé, le fournisseur de services formate une formule matrice spéciale qui est un fichier et qui présente en langage simple (ASCII) tous les noms et tous les paramètres de champ du flux de données brutes. L'opérateur possède un programme mettant en application une interface graphique et montrant cette formule matrice sur l'affichage. A côté de ce document, on voit une formule vierge d'utilisateur et ce dernier sélectionne les champs qu'il désire en attirant au moyen de la souris le champ de son choix depuis la formule matrice vers l'intérieur de la formule d'utilisateur et en lâchant le champ dans cette dernière. De ce fait, l'utilisateur formate sa propre formule ne contenant que les données qu'il souhaite être présentes dans le CDR. Quand la formule d'utilisateur est arrivée au niveau du central téléphonique et du centre de facturation, on peut la mettre en service à tout moment. Ce procédé de formatage permet d'extraire du flux de données brutes les données correspondant à des champs indiqués dans la formule, et, par conséquent, de formater le CDR et de l'envoyer au centre de facturation, qui, au moyen de la même formule élaborée par l'utilisateur, interprétera les données contenues dans le CDR reçu, c'est à dire qu'il créera des champs et reliera les données appartenant aux champs depuis le CDR. Ceci évite de transférer les noms des champs depuis le central jusqu'au centre de facturation.
